British citizen Shamima Begum, one of three east London schoolgirls who travelled to Syria to join ISIS in February 2015, has no Bangladeshi citizenship rights, the foreign ministry said in a statement today.
Shamima Begum, who left east London to join the Islamic State in 2015, would “face the death penalty” for terrorism if she came to Bangladesh, said a BBC report, quoting Foreign Minister Abdul Momen.
The infant son of Shamima Begum, a teenager who left London to join the Islamic State group in Syria, has died, a spokesman for the US-backed Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) says.
The Dutch husband of Shamima Begum, a British-born teenager who fled to join Islamic State, wants to live with her in the Netherlands, the BBC reports after finding him in Syria.
When UK Home Secretary Sajid Javid announced the decision to prevent Shamima Begum from returning to the UK, many were thrilled—including Bangladeshis.
Affirming the country’s stance of zero tolerance to terrorism and violent extremism, the government of Bangladesh states that it will not allow Shamima Begum to enter to the country.
